  • pkellner pkellner (@pkellner) reported from San Francisco, California

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

  • ZachRoth Zach Roth | zachroth.eth (@ZachRoth) reported from San Francisco, California

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

  • w00t John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • espi espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, California

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

  • Zarasdad2016 Fazal Malik (@Zarasdad2016) reported from Hayward, California

    @AOLSupportHelp i need help

  • ghiamia73 melania’s motherboard (@ghiamia73) reported from Oakland, California

    @StephenGlahn @AOL And Capitol police didn’t do shit

  • cleotiger17 Cleo Green (@cleotiger17) reported from San Leandro, California

    @KLGLASS2 @Shakti74572 @AOL BE BEST WOOD fits her image perfectly bc the woman is empty as a brickwall cold as an ice cube boring as a slab of wood. Basically an empty ugly soul who will go down in history books as insignificant. Plagiarizer. Liar. Plastic. No compassion whatsoever for kids dying in cages

  • SFnatives San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

  • davidbyttow David Byttow (@davidbyttow) reported from San Francisco, California

    My mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

  • jjsignal JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

  • TenantsUpstairs Natasha Vo (@TenantsUpstairs) reported from San Francisco, California

    my first aol screen name was sk8rgrl91 so never had any doubt about it

  • yasSF Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • stevenredd stevenredd (@stevenredd) reported from San Francisco, California

    @Ky71Matt @notcapnamerica Hello! Of course I still have an AOL address! How am I supposed to sign up for porn sites I’m never going back to again?!?!

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL poor guy. He's a nice person.🙁

  • thetylerhayes Tyler Hayes 🍩 bring donuts (@thetylerhayes) reported from San Francisco, California

    @joshelman AOL was a literal life changer for me. That dial up sound may be awful but even to this day it makes me want to go back a little

  • mrjasonroy Jason Roy (@mrjasonroy) reported from San Francisco, California

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

  • jjoque Justin Joque (@jjoque) reported

    @mattyglesias That is true, but it is also true that if the music stops playing here for more than a week or two while that is all happening (e.g. outages, bad moderation, glitches, etc.) and people start leaving it turns into a ghost town faster than an aol chat room.

  • LucieCatnip Lucie Catnip (@LucieCatnip) reported

    Blue checkmarks are the new AOL CDs. Everyone got one and they're now garbage. #Twitter #ElonMusk

  • MeghansUncle2 MeghansUncle2 (@MeghansUncle2) reported

    So it looks like @AOL is trying to get more rvenue by denying a service that is critical to many non-paying accounts. I get the attempt to generate revenue, but this may be the death knell for AOL. After the way they have treated me, good riddance.

  • gameism Steve Bowler (@gameism) reported

    @ChrisDeLeon It really is like AOL's "Eternal September" issue where every time a new AOL disk went out another wave of noob idiots came online only now instead of idiots it's libertarians. Eternal Libertarians. "No government overreach!" [Basement floods] "Where's my government bailout!"

  • LTempestZ L. Tempest Zakroff (@LTempestZ) reported

    @kyddryn LMK - sometimes I've noticed issues between aol and gmail, things going missing.

  • kimaboe Kim A. Bøe (@kimaboe) reported

    @antiorario Might be the worst examples you could have picked. People don’t *choose* email providers, there are millions using their AOL accounts in 2022. And not only is phone service a necessity, but it is an industry that lobbies against ease-of-use and would fail any satisfaction survey.

  • bluescat1 Harry Chapman (@bluescat1) reported

    AOL mail sucks if you want to use MS Outlook #AOLsucks

  • laflaneuse 😷 Heidi (@laflaneuse) reported

    People comparing Mastodon to using email w/ different servers. Giving me customer service flashbacks when I did email support looooong time ago & AOL users didn't know their complete email addresses, just their screen name. If you got an incomplete email, usually AOL.

  • Maggie19951 Maggie May (@Maggie19951) reported

    @BamaBonds @elonmusk That’s almost as bad as as the AOL/TW deal.

  • kimaboe Kim A. Bøe (@kimaboe) reported

    @antiorario Might be the worst examples you could have picked. People don’t *choose* email providers, there are millions using their AOL accounts in 2022. And not only is phone service a necessity, but it is an industry that lovbies to stay hard-to-use and would fail any satisfaction survey.
